bironic: Neil Perry gazing out a window at night (Default)

What the hell was I thinking when I did that Five Celebrities I Wouldn't Kick Out Of Bed meme a couple years back? Siddig and Thomas are constants, sure, and I suppose Sebastian though really only when he's Longinus, but how could I have left off David Bowie and Jeremy Irons? Honestly. And Mick Jagger I would probably choose over David Hallberg. Hallberg's better at a distance, moving.

Actually, I know what I was thinking. I was trying to be brainy about it when the whole point was physical attraction.

However, the women are still all on target. Let it never be said that I don't have a raging case of narcissism type.

Brought to you by Irons having been the guest star in two Law & Order: SVU episodes last night.

(I've turned on the TV twice this week instead of zero times, after thinking about how I am paying for cable and not using it. Hockey, UFC and SVU. ...I suppose I should say NHL to keep them all acronyms.)

(It is still baffling to me that UFC does not have a huge fangirl following. It's a bunch of semi-attractive* half-naked uber-fit guys grappling with each other all over the cage walls and floor while the announcers talk about dominating and submitting. I swear, it is like watching the Angry Gay D/s Kama Sutra.

*If you're into buff and often tattooed physiques, as many people seem to be, judging from the size of Eames' fan club in Inception.)

Have seen some movies recently that I want to talk about here (namely The Celluloid Closet and The Killing Fields), but I wouldn't do the discussion justice at the moment. Stay tuned.

Houseguest pending tomorrow. Should be good. The weather's not great, but it's supposed to clear up early enough for her to see the cherry blossoms, which is why she's coming at this particular time.

Any plans for you all? Besides the slice of my flist who are rejoicing at Muskrat Jamboree?

Oooooh, Jeremy Irons was on SVU? Dammit, why am I in the wrong country? (Our broadcasts are a couple of seasons behind, at least if you don't have a massive cable package.)

Um... given the content of this post, maybe it would have been safer for me to stay away from the term "massive package".

Irons pretty much tops my list of celebrities I wouldn't kick out of bed. It's the voice. I mean, dear GOD. It's a little embarrassing. He could say anything and it would have the same effect.

Jeremy Irons: I'm sorry, do you happen to know when the next train -
Me: OMG YES I WILL GIVE YOU MY BODY AND MY BANK ACCOUNT AND A KIDNEY.
JI: ... that'sokayI'llgetacab.
Me: YOU WANT TWO KIDNEYS? I GOT TWO!

"It is like watching the Angry Gay D/s Kama Sutra."

You just made me laugh out loud in a coffeeshop. :) Is it terrible that I now totally want to write the Angry Gay D/s Kama Sutra? Although I imagine you'd need illustrations to really do it justice.

No particular weekend plans, besides making an appearance at my friend's semi-regular night of boardgaming this evening. He's something of a gaming savant, so I tend to lose - a lot - but he's also very good at explaining how to analyse the chances of different strategies working out.

Have fun with your guest! And let me know what you thought about The Killing Fields; it's one of those films I've always meant to see, especially because I like the director.
